I too looked at a S3100 manual and found this strange footnote:
Notes on Connecting the Camera to a Printer
• When Auto is selected for Charge by computer, it may be impossible to
print pictures with direct connection of the camera to some printers.
If the PictBridge startup screen is not displayed in the monitor after
the camera is connected to a printer and turned on, turn the camera off
and disconnect the USB cable. Set Charge by computer to Off and
reconnect the camera to the printer.
Perhaps check if your "Charge by computer" setting is auto and turn to off.

That seemed like it might work, but no,
setting "Charge by computer to Off" did
not put an icon on the desk top when the
device was connected.
My daughter, the photographer, didn't
believe me, tried with her Mac portable,
same result, spent a long time on the
phone with Nikon, got only a firmware
update said to fix a problem I never had.
The regular software such as Shotwell
works well for getting pictures off the
camera and onto the computer and the SD
card files can be accessed easily enough
with a card reader so I don't think this
warrants any more time spent looking for
alternatives.
Thanks to all for the interesting
responses, I always learn something from
them ...
